Anyone else see NFLN Judy Bautista barely hiding how livid she was about the 6 game ruling?
She was practically shaking with anger.
No doubt, Watson is, well, weird but...
You get a third party ruling and then say the ruling isn't enough!?!

She wrote this excellent article.
Nailed it here:
"None of that is as important, though, as this, from Robinson's ruling: The NFL, she wrote, had proved, "by a preponderance of the evidence, that Mr. Watson engaged in sexual assault (as defined by the NFL) against the four therapists identified in the Report."
Read that again. Watson was a repeat sexual assailant. That makes a six-game suspension mystifying and disheartening, as so much of the behavior by so many people involved in this case has been.
Somewhat incredibly, considering she said Watson's behavior was predatory and amounted to sexual assault, Robinson stressed that there was no violence involved in Watson's assaults, a factor in her decision to settle on six games. That, at best, implies that causing unwanted sexualized contact is not inherently violence against the victim."
